Intumescent Fireproofing
Intumescent coating application with project-approved design thickness, compatible primers, controlled conditions and DFT reporting.
Technical scope
Thin-film steel protection designed from section data—not guesswork.
Intumescent coatings expand under heat to form an insulating char. They are often selected where appearance, lower weight or a thinner build-up matters.
The required dry-film thickness varies by member geometry, fire-resistance period, steel temperature criterion and tested manufacturer data. Vortexen does not quote a universal thickness.
Required inputs
- Steel schedule and geometry
- Required rating
- Critical temperature
- Primer system
- Environment and exposure
- Architectural finish
Delivery route
- Validate approved system and thickness schedule
- Inspect surface and primer
- Control temperature, humidity and dew point
- Apply in measured coats
- Inspect DFT, repair defects and close out
Evidence expected
- Approved product and system data
- Thickness schedule
- Environmental logs
- Wet- and dry-film inspection records
